This is the current status
of my current long-term writing project, which I hope to be able to publish whenever
it gets done to my satisfaction. It has undergone nine major re-writes and numerous additional revisions so far,
and I anticipate there will be numerous additional changes before I feel that it is
ready to publish. It is not my desire to argue with anyone on this subject, nor is it my desire
to cast any kind of undue criticism, unkindness, or disparagement upon Gentile
Christianity, to coerce Gentile Believers into embracing Messianic Judaism, or to place Gentile Believers under
any form of “legalism.” My only intent is to present an historical perspective on the Body
of Messiah which I believe is a reasonable alternative to the perspective which I taught for over
35 years as a Baptist pastor.

In the event of my suspicious demise, let be clearly
understood that I am not suicidal. I have, however, received countless death threats from “moderate Muslims” in
response to the content of this website, and as far as I know there
are at least four outstanding fatwas against me. I now have reason to expect retaliation from my own government
as well. Here’s why.
